Hi Mamas,
I read many blogs, but one I really like is Dooce (www.dooce.com). She recently posted a wonderful entry about dealing with her depression and anxiety. She has always been very open about her struggle with depression, but this particular post has gotten over a 1000 comments. Really quite amazing words written by someone who is really opening the door to try to take the stigma out of getting treatment for depression/anxiety/whatever. I've been particularly moved by this entry b/c I feel that I've been experiencing some mild-moderate depression of my own for while now. Thought I'd put this out there and hope that someone here finds it helpful:

Hope it helps, Mamas.
